Following Ibitoye’s request to leave the London Club during rugby’s COVID-19 hiatus, Harlequins, who were committed to retaining the services of Ibitoye, have now agreed to let him join Agen after reaching a satisfactory compensation fee for the mid-season transfer.

Harlequins head into the remainder of the postponed 2019/20 Premiership season extremely well resourced on the wing.

With the long-awaited return from injury of England prospect Nathan Earle, the impressive Cadan Murley, the Champions Cup record try-scorer Chris Ashton, young South African star Tyrone Green (set to arrive the Club shortly) and the versatility of fullbacks Aaron Morris and Ross Chisholm and skilful centre Joe Marchant – the latter of whom has featured on the wing for the Blues during his loan spell in Super Rugby earlier this year – the Club heads towards rugby’s return at The Stoop on August 14 against Sale Sharks well-stocked on the wing.

The Club recently welcomed back to training England’s most-capped fullback, Mike Brown, who is in line to make his return against Sale, nine months after his last appearance in the Quarters.
